Katzinger also includes tips on where to source specialty ingredients (just in case your local supermarket doesn't regularly stock teff), and organizes her recipes into complementary menus for each holiday that make planning out your meal a breeze.VegNews Gluten-Free and Vegan Holidays: Celebrating the Year with Simple, Satisfying Recipes and Menus (2011) is Jennifer Katzinger's healthy homage to holiday eating.
